relocating to savannah, ga (Atlanta, Washington: best cities, spring break, 2015)

[wentmissing]

I whole hardily agree with the negatives above. I have been here 7 weeks for a job. It is the most messed up place for its size I have seen in my 60 years. White flight has made Pooler and Richmond Hill popular but the road congestion coming in and out of the city is horrible. There is a lot of noise in the area with Army planes and helicopters flying at all hours of the night. Cannon fire at 6:30 a.m.
Awful place.

The word is "wholeheartedly," not "whole hardily."

You mention traffic too, but there, Savannah is a victim of its own success: it's now the fastest-growing metropolitan area in the state. The downtown area is ten times more interesting than it was 20 years ago -- it's full of residents and visitors alike, and is a model for any southern downtown. The problems with Savannah are (1) the cost of housing, especially apartment rents, because Savannah has become popular with young people and retirees, (2) the job situation, for other than the hospitals, universities, and the public schools, jobs are not that plentiful, (3) road traffic is heavier than it was years ago, and (4) the crime rate is high, although the problem is always in certain neighborhoods and not others. An apartment with a rent of $600/month in Savannah is only possible in the "sketchy" neighborhoods of the city. I don't recommend it.

Gee sorry the men and women that defend your freedoms woke you up with a "cannon"! For 'traffic' I guess this is the biggest city you've ever been to?

Exercising the ignore list has been good for my blood pressure with trolls who seem to have too much time on their hands, guys.

I see your point and way too many times I'm tempted to do just that. But on the other hand, it prevents you from understanding how many nut jobs are out there. Guys like him train you for life in a bigger arena...like Mr. Trump. I see little difference between whatshisname and Trump. Don't want to go off topic here and get my pressure up, but I'm sure you see where I'm going.

I'm trying to get out.

luckily for me I stayed in a hotel while I check the area out and work a job.And the hotel had a $14.08 surcharge and tax.if you are from a horrible place you might like it here
but if you've ever lived in a decent place you will not like it.there are only two ways in and out of the city and the traffic is in good luck most of the time.I have no axe to grind and I'm telling everyone the truth.it is not as bad as let's say places like Atlanta Chicago Detroit Los Angeles.but there are many many other smaller towns much much better.
the air is also polluted by The Mills and various other things around.
the noise level is off the charts with airplanes and helicopters all hours of the day and night flying around from the army base located in the middle of the city.
I have talked to many many Natives and they say it's a horrible place.
but if you want to believe these AirHeads I think it's great go and move there and you'll find out.I'm trying to prevent a lot of Heartache
